The purpose of this project is to help libraries attain original printed state documents for digitization.

Please contact the person listed in the "Local Contact for State Needs" column if you have state government publications to offer. Academic libraries, public libraries, state libraries, state archives, historical societies, and museum archives are all potentially interested in state government publications, particularly the historic editions. This page enables offering libraries to contact just one person in each state before disposing of potentially valuable material that has not yet been digitized at preservation-level standards.

If your library is weeding and you see no contact person for the state in question, please contact the project coordinator, Marie Concannon, at concannonm@missouri.edu.

See also our SLIDE SHOW (in pdf format) for some fascinating examples of historic state documents!

Notes: In February 2012, the North Dakota State Library began the process of weeding non-ND state-level government publications. It is proceeding in an order according to interest expressed by other states. Most materials available date from the 1960s-1980s. Interested libraries may ask for a spreadsheet of offers.
